Snippet Sunday: You’re a what? …The Gryphon and His Thief @KMNbooks #8sunday #snippetsunday #SPeekSunday
Welcome to Snippet Sunday.
If you missed the last weeks snippet from The Gryphon & His Thief, here's the link.
Set up: Darrien is about to tell Calli he's a shape shifter. Wonder how she'll take the news. lol
This is in Calli's POV and she is speaking first.
*The excerpt was modified to fit the 8 sentence limit. There are a few long sentences. 
***********************************************************
"My name is Calli," she interrupted. She in no way was going to have him believe she was some chick he'd been involved with in the past.
"Calli," he said the name as if he were trying it out. He nodded then, as if his nutty messed up brain could handle the name change. "Calli, you spoke of seeing a Gryphon." He met her gaze with those strange colored-eyes, both bronze and gold. "The beastie and I are one and the same."
"Holy…" she stuttered.
***********************************************************
Yep, I could think of a few more words to go with Holy—. lol

Some Treasures are Priceless…
A long time ago, a Gryphon shifter’s duty was to guard and protect the people of the tribes, but Darrien Andros failed to keep his human wife safe from harm. Cursed for the crime, he must guard everything in the Museum of Cursed Antiquities forever, never to truly live and never to die. Centuries have passed, but when he encounters a thief, who uncannily resembles his dead wife, he is convinced he has a second chance.
Calli Angelis is hired to steal Hecate's Stone from the Museum, believing she would be returning it to its rightful owner. She never really trusted the person who hired her and now Darrien makes her doubt her motives, too. He also has her questioning the possibility of reincarnation when the attraction between them ignites into something she can no longer ignore.
As the two work together to unravel the mysteries behind the stone, it becomes apparent an old and dangerous enemy from Darrien’s past is determined to have history repeat itself.
